[EDIT Feb 2015: This cafe is now closed and operates under a new concept and a new name called Tamper & Co]

If you are thinking that the La'Coffee is "Los Angeles" Coffee, you and me should have a virtual high-five! That was exactly what I thought it stands for when I first saw the name of this cafe. But no, you have to read this name the Singaporean way: "la" (third sound in Han Yu Pin Yin) kopi. 

I was pretty sure I had to order in dialect when I get there, given the very Singaporean name. 

"AUNTIE, KOPI-C JI PUAY!"

There was no auntie when the Evilbean reached there though. And the greeting was "Hello!" instead of the "Xiao Di, yao shen me?" (Literal translation: What do you want little boy?) you hear in coffee shops.

You must be wondering: What kind of menu do they serve in this cafe? Only kaya "lotis" (bread)? Well, to save you from Googling, the considerate Evilbean took photos of everything in their menu because he is that awesome. Click/Tap on the photos for larger versions!





I would say it's a very fusion kind of menu with Kopis, Dim Sum and Western food all in one place. I read that the "lotis" are good from Instagram, so we ordered the combo set:




Their wings are marinated in-house with garlic and "fried to perfection". Are they really perfection?

YES. OMG. These wings are SO GOOD that I exclaimed on Instagram (@Evilbean) that we should totally add them to Singapore's Best Chicken Wings list! Each wing was flavourfully marinated and their insides were really juicy! The vegetables are also a thoughtful addition for you to chew on to balance out some calories. 

Overall, I really liked the ambience at la' coffee. My advice to you is to take the seats that are facing the full glass windows as you will be able to soak in the amazing architecture opposite the cafe. To me, the view has some sort of Hongkong feel, teleporting me momentarily outside of Singapore.

Also, how not to love this cafe when they were playing SNSD's Gee (YOOONAAAAAAA) and APink's NoNoNo (NA EUNNN) on their playlist?

Evilbean's last words/recommendation:
- A good place to chill with reasonable prices. The vast variety of food also means that there will be something that will suit your palette!
- MUST-ORDER: la'coffee Wings!
